Used 1976 Chevrolet Corvette for sale in Alpharetta, Georgia
Gateway Classic Cars of Atlanta is proud to present this 1976 Chevrolet Corvette C3. The Chevrolet Corvette (C3) is a sports car that was produced from 1967 to 1982 by Chevrolet for the 1968 to 1982 model years. Engines and chassis components were mostly carried over from the previous generation, but the body and interior were new. It set new sales records with 53,807 produced for the 1979 model year. The C3 is the third generation of the Chevrolet Corvette, and marks the second time the Corvette would carry the Stingray name, though only for the 1969 - 1976 model years. This time it was a single word as opposed to Sting Ray as used for the 1963 - 1967 C2 generation. The name would then be retired until 2014 when it returned with the release of the C7. In 1975, service intervals were extended and electronic ignition and the federally mandated catalytic converter were introduced with unleaded fuel only warnings on the fuel gauge and filler door. Dual exhaust pipes were routed to a single converter, then split again leading to dual mufflers and tailpipes. Starting this year, tachometers were electronically driven. The Corvette began to be influenced by the metric system as speedometers now displayed small subfaces indicating kilometers-per-hour. 1976 models featured steel floor panels shielding the catalytic converter exhaust. These steel floor panels weighed less than the previous fiberglass floor and reduced interior noise levels. A new rear nameplate for the rear bumper cover was introduced, eliminating the individual Corvette letters used since 1968. Powering this 1976 Chevrolet Corvette C3 is a small block chevy backed by a automatic transmission.
